Celebrate Iowa’s corn-bred legacy

Hear live music from DJs and musicians, and watch performances, fashion shows and speakers at this year’s Cornbred Cornbread Festival.

The Cornbred Cornbread Festival brings the best of Iowa culture in all its corny glory together in one spot on July 27 at Riverview Park in Des Moines. The festival seeks to “bridge the gaps between Iowa’s urban and rural cultures in education, agriculture, arts, innovation, technology, and careers,” according to the website.

During the event form 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., attendees will find a potluck showcase of food vendors, artists, tech demonstrations, live music, panel discussions, a ceremony honoring “Cornbred Certified” Iowans and other activities, all designed to acknowledge and celebrate our uniquely Iowan culture.
